I will when the the poster i responded to cools it with the superiority complex about American team and cups.
PS Canada would have still had a league with or without Americans.

He’s 22 years old and played an integral part on a Cup winning team. He’s nowhere close to being a bust, say that is just dumb as shit.

If the canucks could fit him in the cap I'd offer lekkerimaki, a recent 15th overall who is doing well. Though I've always liked Byram and he's local. Not sure all canucks fans would like this deal.
Edit: Byram would probably be better suited going to a team where he could play pp1. Colorado/vancouver/nyr/Pittsburgh etc probably aren't ideal spots for him.
Maybe Byram to arz for guenther or something? Ooooh or to a team like Minnesota who doesn't have an elite offensive dman. SJS?

Or why the original 4 teams were all Canadian.

Aves are a win now team with a hole at 2C.
So offers of guys like Garland, Hoglander, Podkolzin, or recently drafted winger prospects are exactly the kind of trade that will appeal to Aves fans.

The value of Byram is still relatively high. Primarily due to a couple of reasons. His combination of speed, youth, size, poise and defensive play is very hard to find at 22. Not only that, but he’s actually proven in the playoffs and regular season that the talent is there. He still has stretches of very elite play and has shown that he can be integral to a Cup-winning team. Any GM is willing to pay a premium for that. Secondly, Byram is a low-risk player. What I mean by that is that is he has a very high ceiling, but if it doesn’t pan out, his floor is still very good as a shutdown top-4 defenseman. For 3.8 mill a season, that’s not bad by any means with the cap going up. There’s not too many players like that. Which brings me to my next point. Byram is on a great contract. Any GM who sees anything in him, can lock him up for long-term come extension time.
Now of course, there’s the injury risk with him, but I bet that Byram does eventually breakout as a superstar and has a healthy career. If anyone watches him play, you would know that he’s too good not to.

I think that Bo Byram will be fine. Very young player that has been nicked up a bit so far on his career.
I remember in the off season there was a poster that pokes his nose into every thread involving Vancouver always telling everyone how shitty Vancouver’s players were. Something Jedi I think? The poster said he wouldn’t trade Byram for Quinn Hughes.

Can you identify this poster to a police sketch artist?

The same guy that said the current NHL goal leader is a cap dump?I think that Bo Byram will be fine. Very young player that has been nicked up a bit so far on his career.

byram's nowhere near being a bust and isn't having that bad of a season, but dude definitely looks like he lost 20 IQ points over the summer. his decision-making and timing is pretty bad in some games. avs fans said earlier this season that was mostly due to playing his off-side, is he still doing that? should they maybe stop doing that?

He's also had a bunch of injuries that definitely didn't help his development.
You should let the other guy know Byram has a higher ppg than that Kakko guy his Rangers drafted a few spots earlier. Maybe let him know they play different positions also.

The Avs aren't trading Bryram unless he asks for a trade.
IMO he should if he wants a real chance to fully meet his potential and make the most amount of money in his career. He's going to need PP1 opportunity for that and he'll understandably never get it behind Makar.
But as is, Byram is only 22 and already a #3 defenseman in the NHL. The Avs are clearly grooming him to be a 5v5 specialist, which is a mistake IMO. In the next 2-3 years he'll jump up to the top pairing as Toews starts to age out and Byram will become Makar's full time partner. It's not the shiniest career you could have hoped for on his draft day, but it's just fine in Colorado as long as he's okay with living in Makar's shadow.
The honest truth is Byram was drafted by a club that wasn't ideal for him. He's already got a cup ring, so I doubt he's too disappointed about it, but he really should have gone to Chicago and played under Duncan Keith for a year or two before becoming their PP1 QB and long term #1 D.
